Do what I did, remove those side mouldings, do not bother to color code. They are on by tape, just use some hot water to heat up and peel them off.
sick of cycling the 1hr trip to work so i bought my first car a few months ago
Astra wagon CD AH MY08,
the car is physically in good shape bar a dint/scratch on a side rear panel.
as far as improving modding the car, this is what i have planned initially
-replacing the hubcaps with some alloys
-repairing the dint/scratch
-recolouring the side bumper strips. colour coded silver. they seem to be stuck on with double sided tape...possible to get them off without damage?
really open to any suggestions on what could improve the look of the car, or even some modded wagon examples
my experience of the forum has been great so far, speedy replies are a thing of beauty
scratch
side strips, double side tape (?)

ouch that is nasty scrape!
umm for options id get some 18" replica VXR wheels (can get for around $800-1000aud landed) get some dark tint on those windows! lower it and change the headlights over to either angel eyes or DRL ones (or just stock ones that are black) and get yourself an irmy front grille
ill get ya some pics of things im talking about now
maybe even the VXR/opc Bodykit
that looks insane monkey! unfortutely im not that flush atm, i wanted to spend <600 on the wheels...
maybe ill try to get that scratch fixed first

ha yeah. those are pretty nasty, i prefer the ones you posted, with less spokes.
the black looks nice without the side strips, just wondering how the silver would look...
these wheels are pretty tight
